When you think of the name Middleton, you think Kate, right? Beyond that, probably Pippa. But don’t forget about James. Can being the younger brother to the Duchess of Cambridge — one of the most famous women in the world — be a bit frustrating? “Yes, it does get frustrating,” James Middleton tells iPad magazine The Young Director. “I work incredibly hard — just like every other person in business and work.
